install.packages 中的警告：无法在 R 3.5 中移动临时安装

Question

I am getting this classic error in R

unable to move temporary installation '\\zrheaf00\\users$\\807140\\R\\win-library\\3.5\\file26bc1bee38f9\\fields' to '\\zrheaf00\\users$\\807140\\R\\win-library\\3.5\\fields'

in previous versions it was possible to fix by

Trace(utils:::unpackPkgZip, edit=TRUE)

Nevertheless this version does not have the sys.time option. Is there any solution for 3.5?

Answer 1

I think the culprit maybe your antivirus software/app. I disabled mine and the error message disappeared.

Answer 2

This problem exists in R 3.5 on network folders in Windows 10, and the sys.sleep solution is no longer relevant unfortunately. I have full read/write permissions on the network drive where R install libraries, but still receive this error. I do not have admin rights for the machine and therefore cannot switch off anti-virus software.
